Rudy Giuliani’s Daughter Reveals What It’s Like Talking To Her Dad In Private

Caroline Rose Giuliani says her father, former Donald Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani, acts the same way behind closed doors as he does in front of the cameras.

After her recent endorsement of Democratic nominee Kamala Harris , the filmmaker spoke to MSNBC's Alex Witt on Sunday about the damage Trump has done to her family and the country and shed light on her relationship with her Republican father.

She said she still speaks to him despite their vast political differences.

"We're always changing, and I do have open conversations with him," Giuliani replied. "He knows how I feel about all these things. I don't think any of this came as a surprise. I think one thing I do try to tell him is just how afraid I am about our future and about the future of any grandchildren that I may give him."

Witt asked what the former New York City mayor says when confronted with his daughter's views.

"I mean, he talks to me the same way that he would talk to a camera," Giuliani said of her dad. "He has his way of presenting these things and just sticks with them. It's hard. It's really hard."

She noted her situation is not unique, pointing out how it's relatable for many "to have this chasm in your family over Trump."

She added, "And I think with Trump in office, those chasms are not going to be able to heal."

The filmmaker said she decided to speak out about her views because of her concerns about the climate crisis and the assault on reproductive freedoms under Trump.

"I think it's just so important to remember that this is not just about the next four years. This is about the rest of our lives because the damage that Trump can and will do to our institutions will last beyond after he dies. You know, he will pave the way for future autocrats also to run our country," she said.

Rudy Giuliani was disbarred in Washington, D.C., last month, following similar action by a New York court earlier this year over his prominent role in Trump's attempt to overturn the 2020 election. Last year, he was ordered to pay two Georgia election workers $148 million in damages after he was found liable for defaming them.

He also faces criminal charges in election interference cases in Arizona and Georgia. He pleaded not guilty in both cases.
